| Comment | The proposed requirements for trailer fairings, single wide tires,
5-minute idling rule will substantially reduce the number of
trucks willing to come to CA to deliver or pick up freight. A
better solution is to require that every driver licensed in CA go
to a state-acredited driving school and charge $2500 for the
license. In conjunction, heavy investment in the infrastructure of
public transportation would have to be made. At one time, LA had a
wonderful public transit system until the oil companies bought it
out and suubsequently dismantled it. Create land use laws that
state that if land can be used for agriculture and/or recreation,
it cannot be used for development thus forcing construction of
more condos/apartments. Deeply regulate the condo/apts so that
tenants/owners are not unfaily victimized. Provide incentives for
older buildings to be renovated/replaced in city cores. Enact
impact laws that require a certain amount of green space for so
many occupied units. All these measures would significantly
reduce the amount of greenhouse gases CA produces each year.
